Love is come again I am gone again Love is the end of history The enemy of misery Love is come again I am gone again Love is justice, not charity Love brings with it a clarity Love is come again I'm alive again Alive

-Mercy

Lyric of the Day

"(Beautiful Day's) lyric expresses amazement, really, that whatever situation you find yourself in, as uncomfortable and upsetting as they can be, if you're alive and you are awake, then you have perspective on it... Pain is evidence of life because it reminds you there are things in your life that aren't right. So you should be thankful for it really and celebrate that there is so much to live for." - Bono describing Beautiful Day in 2006

"It's a New York song. About going there for the first time. We were the first band to play Madison Square Gardens after 9/11. During 'Where The Streets Have No Name' the house lights came up and there were 20,000 people in tears. It was beautiful." - Bono, Q 2004

The more you see the less you know The less you find out as you go I knew much more then than I do now

Neon heart, day glow eyes A city lit by fireflies They're advertising in the skies For people like us

And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights

Don't look before you laugh Look ugly in a photograph Flash bulbs, purple irises The camera can't see

I've seen you walk unafraid I've seen you in the clothes you made Can you see the beauty inside of me What happened to the beauty I had inside of me

And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh, you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights

Time, time, time, time Time won't leave me as I am But time won't take the boy out of this man

Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Oh, you look so beautiful tonight Yeah, the city of blinding lights

The more you know the less you feel Some pray for, others steal Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel Luckily
